Grout Repair of Dent-Damaged Steel Marine Tubulars
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A test program consisting of 13 steel tubular brace specimens with dent damage and various diameter-to-thickness (
Experimental Response and Damage of SC-CLT Shear Walls under Multidirectional Cyclic Lateral Loading
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: This paper presents an experimental study on the multidirectional cyclic lateral-load response of post-tensioned self-centering (SC) cross-laminated timber (CLT) shear walls. SC-CLT shear wall damage states are introduced ...
Rate-Independent and Rate-Dependent Models for Hysteretic Behavior of Elastomers
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Rate-independent and rate-dependent models are presented for the hysteretic shear stress-strain behavior of elastomeric damping materials. A rate-independent hysteretic model, called the general asymptote and power function ...
Performance-Based Seismic Design of Steel MRFs with Elastomeric Dampers
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper presents research on seismic design of steel special moment resisting frames (SMRFs) with supplemental elastomeric dampers. The SMRF properties and damper design criteria are varied to illustrate their effects ...
Erratum for “Simulations of a Variable Friction Device for Multihazard Mitigation” by Liang Cao, Simon Laflamme, Douglas Taylor, and James Ricles
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Effect of Local Details on Ductility of Welded Moment Connections
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The results of a 3D finite-element study of the inelastic behavior of unreinforced, flange-welded moment connections in steel seismic moment resisting frames is presented. Computer models of connection subassemblies with ...
Simulations of a Variable Friction Device for Multihazard Mitigation
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper investigates the performance of a novel semiactive damping device at mitigating nonsimultaneous multihazard loads. The device, termed modified friction device (MFD), has been previously proposed by the authors. ...
SMA-Based Low-Damage Solution for Self-Centering Steel and Composite Beam-to-Column Connections
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: This paper presents a low-damage solution for self-centering steel and composite beam-to-column connections, with the issue of beam-growth being particularly addressed by permitting the connections to rotate only about the ...
Performance Validations of Semiactive Controllers on Large-Scale Moment-Resisting Frame Equipped with 200-kN MR Damper Using Real-Time Hybrid Simulations
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Magnetorheological dampers (MR) have the promising ability to mitigate seismic hazard for structures because of their adaptive energy dissipation characteristics and low power requirements that can be met using standby ...
Experimental Investigation of Self-Centering Cross-Laminated Timber Walls
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Mass timber is an attractive and sustainable alternative structural engineering material to concrete and steel. Despite successful midrise to high-rise timber building projects around the world, such buildings have not ...
